Yes, and its easy with the usual DHCP daemons that come with all the usual Linux distros. I do a lot of wireless networking stuff for my day job. WiFi, bluetooth, zigbee, etc. And I've developed a complete flaming reaction to boxes that setup themselves as 192.168.1.1 and turn on DHCP. I've had different boxes from different vendors do it so often it makes me mad as hell and I'll not going to take it any more. This is also a prime reason I run my subnet on 172.16.4.* so that when I see a 192.168.*.*, I know its some fascist box trying to ruin my day. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
